Dear Incognitus, O.K., you are welcome!  However, despite the ancient tradition of the two-fingered Sign of the Cross, this does not mean that we of the "New Rite" can follow the Old Rite - or does it? Alex

Dear Alex,
I am aware of nothing at all that restricts the use of the Old-Rite form of the Sign of the Cross among Greek-Catholics.

Has anyone noticed that the St Elias church website has been revamped? Not quite as pretty as the previous one, I think.

Pavloosh asks: "New Rite, Old Rite?
What is that all about? "
In this terminology, these expressions refer to the liturgical practice of the Russian Churches - "New Rite" is that specific version of the Slav-Byzantine tradition mandated by Patriarch Nikon of Moscow in the middle of the seventeenth century; "Old Rite" is the specific version of the Slav-Byzantine tradition before the reign of Patriarch Nikon.
The best - indeed almost the only - book on this subject in English is Paul Meyendorff's Russia, Ritual and Reform, published by Saint Vladimir's Seminary Press.
